Roosevelt Island Lighthouse Park Party/BBQ Broken Up By Public Safety Department Late Saturday Night - Separate Report Of Guns Unfounded

Entrance To Lighthouse Park On East Channel

I asked Roosevelt Island Public Safety Department Director Keith Guerra what was going on Saturday night at Lighthouse Park.
I understand there was a late night party/BBQ at Lighthouse park last night.

Were there any problems or incidents?
The 8/14 - 8/15 Public Safety Report indicates:

Investigation- NYPD responded to Light House Park for a report of males possibly with guns. PSD also responded. A search was made with negative results.
According to Mr. Guerra:
These two are separate incidents.

There was a call to NYPD regarding Firearms, which was Unfounded.

There was also an unauthorized party at Lighthouse Park, which was broken up by our Department without incident.
